Greek Election Result


BBC News - Greece Live: Reports on the result of the Greek General Election, New Democracy gained 29.5%, Syriza 27.1% and Pasok 12.3%.

Lets Get Real:

It seems from reports from Greece that New Democracy wants the other Parties to form a National Government, the reply seems a big NO, the new radical left wing Party Syriza wants to be the official Opposition, while the old mainstream left wing Party Pasok will also not go in to Government, but will support ND in the Greek Parliament. In other words ND will push through the harsh austerity measures and will get destroyed in the next General Election. The Syriza Party will get none of the blame but all the benefit, while the Pasok Party will lick its self inflicted wounds. That is democracy folks.
